    I liked Birdman a lot. The editing was amazing and the acting blew me away. So many long takes. The story didn't interest me at all, but thankfully everything else about the movie was enthralling.


    Interstellar - ?/10. It turned into a huge clusterfuck after having the potential to be the best sci-fi film ever made. I'm not surprised since Nolan seemed to be completely lost on his last Batman movie, I'm just disappointed. It's definitely worth the watch if you enjoy astrophysics and relativity. Great production, poor execution. Nolan has lost his mojo. We'll get a great sci-fi space epic one of these days hopefully.

    I saw Serenity for the first time in almost a decade, and when I saw it that time I hadn't seen Firefly yet, so I guess in a way this was like seeing it for the first time again.

    10/10 would mind-wipe and watch again.

    The Interview

    Wasn't really good as I thought it'd be, but still good enough.

    Intouchables (8.5/10)

    Beautiful movie! If you haven´t seen this one yet, you definitely should! It´s a perfect combination of comedy and drama with superb acting by François Cluzet and Omar Sy. Especially in the last scene. Great soundtrack too by the way.

    In Nolan's defense, he didn't even want to do the last Batman. I wouldn't count that against him just yet.

    Watched Birdman the other night, it was pretty cool. The acting was superb.

    Screw Gravity for not achieving that.

    Gravity was a very great survival drama that just happened to be set in space. There was nothing imaginative, exploratory, or futuristic about its science or setting. When I think of sci-fi I think of Looper, The Matrix, Blade Runner, Inception, District 9, etc. Movies that view science and reality in a much different way than we do.

    Guardians of the galaxy -9/10

    It's really great movie, not much special about it but yeah. The characters were different that what I assumed them to(except for Chris Patt being himself though).

    Also, thanks to 'The Josen one's' signature, I quickly figured out what was going to happen to Groot :jesse:

    I didn't want to watch it because I avoid watching comic book movies because I don't like being a casual fan of things :)shrug:) and I don't like comic books. But I saw it because it seemed like a fun movie and it was.

    EDIT: Sorry Filip, I just assumed I was the last one here to watch the movie. And if you watch the movie, it's a bit different.
